Festivals foster a robust sense of community and social interaction, but may lead to a return to a less stimulating or isolated social environment after the event.
Loss of excitement
Festivals' vibrant atmosphere, pulsating music, and immersive entertainment create sensory overload, leading to a sense of emptiness or boredom post-festival.
Return to routine
The transition from a celebratory environment to daily life can be challenging for some individuals, potentially intensifying feelings of post-festival blues.
Anticipation buildup
The anticipation of a festival can be a profound emotional experience, but the end may bring a sense of letdown.
Emotional exhaustion
During a festival, sensory overload and intense emotions can lead to emotional exhaustion, causing individuals to feel drained and emotionally depleted after the event.
